| Description: |
In this image Sol Aris
depicts
the relationship between
dark and light.
A constantly
changing
evanescence,
the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility
of which
is always constant,
is always entirely altered
by the mere presence
of the onlooker.
The world of night and day in this sculpture,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
graceful sinuous curves...
The
adorned
background
belies
a reflection of the artist's soul.
Contrasts of lager and ecstasy
dominate
the
expanse
of the work.
``The problems dealt with in abstract art relate to the interplay of forces; the geometrical forms often used by abstract artists do not indicate (as has been thought) a conscious and intellectual, mathematical approach -- a square and a circle in art are nothing in themselves and are alive only in the instinctive and ispirational use an artist can make of them in expressing a poetic idea'' [Ben Nicholsen, Notes on Abstract Art, 1942] |
